Killed by the Cars.
Fatal Attempt to Board a Moving Train.

On Monday evening, as the pas.
senger train on the Straitsville and
Monday Creek Branch was start
ing out from Straitsville to Nelson
willie, Mr.. John Fluharty attempted
to get on board after the train had
got In motion, and by some mishap
failed in his hold on the hand rail
and fell. The step of the moving
car struck him OH the back of the
head, threw him under the car in
such a position that one leg and
one arm were horribly crushed. 1t
is supposed that the blow OH the
head caused his death which oc-
Cured within minute after being
struck.
Mr.. Fluhar!y was, a respected
resident of Green Township, this
county, quiet and inoffeHsive, q
kind and obliging neighbor and
good citizen. He leaves widow
and several children, who have the
sympathy of the entire community
in which they are known.

We clip the following compli-

per: GAS per announcement, DIR.
W. A. France visited Toledo last
week, and met most of his numer-
Gus patrons and friends in the city
and hereabouts. It Is well known
that the Doctor Is remarkably sue
cessful in the treatment Of chronic
diseases, hence his very large prac-
tice in every place and community
visited by him. We do not uphold
quackery in any form, and deeply
deplore the fact that there are too
many all around us that are ever
ready, like vultures, to pounce on a
credulous public. hut we happen
to know the social and protest.
standing, and Of his medical skill
and his success in long practice,
hence, are not 10th to recommend
him to our readers. DR.. France is
an able physician and surgeon and
with all a gentleman, and, using
his success in the past as q criteri-
on, we need not hesitate to class
him, as he is classed, at the head of
the medical specialists. The doctor
visits regularly some IS or 80 coun-
ties around Toledo, and has done SO
for quite number of years."-[ To-
